Ce diable d'homme - Season 1 Episode 6
Sixth and final episode. Voltaire has taken in the Calas family, but the Parliament of Languedoc threatens to revolt if the case goes to appeal. Voltaire publishes the Treatise on Tolerance, and Louis XV rehabilitates Calas. Voltaire’s fame becomes immense. Years pass, and the lord of Ferney still has no right to return to Paris, the city where he wishes to die. In Ferney, he builds workshops, drains marshes, and rescues a young woman from a convent, providing her with a dowry and marriage — “Belle et Bonne.” He finally returns to Paris in triumph, receiving extraordinary honors. But after this apotheosis comes horror: illness torments him, and worse, Madame Denis and Belle‑et‑Bonne’s husband confine the dying man to ensure he does not change the will in their favor. Voltaire dies alone, on a poor cot, on 30 May 1778.
